SotD: Thursday 7th February 2013

Good morning all !

Enjoy your day 30 Roses - Happy Birthday to an exemplary and indispensable member of this community

Off work the rest of the week, and have been blessed with glorious weather here today. Into town to visit the flight centre and do some serious planning shortly - we have a BIG trip to finalise for later in the year (one or two will probably guess where this is heading - I'll report back).

Thanks, people!! I'm going to be spending a chunk of the day with Mom. If she's less confused today than yesterday, I may be able to take her out for lunch, we'll see.
SotD is L'Artisan Fleur d'Oranger.

We're expecting a huge snowstorm tomorrow -- apparently two systems are coming together to form a big one. They're using terms like "high impact event", "blinding conditions" and "thunder snow". A good day to be home, all of us.

Have I told you about the scent of jasmine? Have I spoken about the smell of the sea? The earth is scented. And I perfume myself to enhance what I am. That's why I can not wear a perfume that bothers me. Perfuming is an instinctive wisdom. And like all art, it requires some knowledge of yourself..."

Hello everyone!

I'm enjoying the radiant aldehydes of vintage Vivre de Molyneux this morning, a perfect foil for the damp and drippy weather we're having ...which I really don't mind so much, especially during Mardi Gras season ...it tends to thin the crowds a bit.

Y'all have a great day!

Happy Birthday 30 Roses! I hope you have a special day, filled with joy and glorious fragrance!

And a happy Fat Thursday to Lucas - enjoy!

Hey Jon - I'll have a guess! Could it be NYC???

Good luck with that Alityke - you take care of yourself, and that hip!

Science is not only compatible with spirituality, it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual...Carl Sagan

Happy Birthday Ms 30 Roses, she who is caught between the generations, may you be granted the strength you need to do all that and still take care of yourself.

Jailia today. Sunshine smell for our beautiful weather. The sun has risen and the clouds are beautiful; from my office i can see two bridges, the city, the bay, birds, slight mist clinging to the land, it is so pretty. If I had a good camera I would show you all.

So, Mr. Beast, I see you finally got the Cologne version of DH.
Roberto, I love that Rocabar ad
Happy Birthday 30 Roses - I will wear some Creed Fleur de Rose Bulgare tonight, in your honor. ((raises a glass of champagne))

Woke up in the mood to wear this, something I hardly ever wear to the office. I own the vintage Parfum de Toilette, perhaps the spiciest most intense version. Heliotrope for days.

Haha , somewhat misleading of me really, I suppose - the "BIG" was only in reference to the journey time involved. We are visiting my sister and are off to New Zealand again !. The only downer being that we have to wait until Dec 14th, but with flight availability (myself, Jenny, parents) rapidly diminishing we needed to sort things ASAP. We will be spending a month with them - Christmas and New Year will be in short sleeves and dosed up with hay fever medication.

My SotE today is from a newly delivered sample and I am literally BLOWN AWAY.

Ramon Monegal Impossible Iris.

Absolutely no dilly-dallying whatsoever, I am logging off and ordering a bottle now, seriously.

Calling the iris brigade Cello, Whitefluffy, PerfumedLady - if you haven't tried this yet rectify the situation as soon as you can.
